How it's calculated

Amount at risk = balance × risk %.

Stocks and crypto: units = amount at risk ÷ |entry − stop loss|.

Forex: lots = amount at risk ÷ (stop distance in pips × pip value per lot). A standard lot is 100,000 units; for pairs quoted in USD the pip value is about $10 per lot (0.0001 pip). For JPY pairs a pip is 0.01.
